API routes (packages/dashboard/src/routes.ts): Added thinkingLevel validation in POST /api/tasks endpoint\n4. Frontend API (packages/dashboard/app/api.ts): Added thinkingLevel to createTask function\n5. NewTaskModal (packages/dashboard/app/components/NewTaskModal.tsx): Added thinking level selector UI in Model Configuration section\n6. QuickEntryBox (packages/dashboard/app/components/QuickEntryBox.tsx): Added thinking level selector in models dropdown\n7. Tests (packages/dashboard/app/components/__tests__/NewTaskModal.test.tsx): Added 4 tests for thinking level selection\n8.
